About us

Twenty years of asking better questions.

great{with}talent began in 2003 with a single idea: the moment someone leaves an organisation holds real strategic value, and almost nobody was capturing it properly. Two decades on, that thinking runs across the entire employee journey.

Who we are

An intelligence business, not a survey company

We are a UK workforce intelligence consultancy based in Esher, Surrey. Our team combines occupational psychologists, data scientists and technologists – people who build the instruments, and people who turn what the instruments find into decisions.

Surveys are how we listen; they have never been the point. The point is what a leadership team does differently because of what the evidence shows. That is why every engagement ends in a narrative, a set of graded priorities and a benchmark position – not a data export.

Hundreds of organisations have trusted us with the conversations that matter most: why people join, why they stay, what they won’t say out loud, and why they leave.

The journey

From one questionnaire to a lifecycle.

Workforce intelligence

Who trusts us

Serious organisations, serious conversations.

We work across most sectors of the economy — and with many organisations within each. The names below only hint at the range: a global technology consultancy, the NHS and a national care provider, a building-products manufacturer and a children’s charity. What unites them is a refusal to guess: each would rather hear the truth from its own people, independently and in confidence, than assume all is well.

Eurocell
Capgemini
NHS
Hallmark Care Homes
UNICEF

In regulated and closely scrutinised sectors — healthcare, care, charity — evidence of a healthy culture is no longer optional. Everywhere else, it is simply how serious organisations stay serious. And once a board has seen the first report, the conversation rarely stops.
